When the heaviness comes rolling in, it arrives as a slow implosion rather than an outburst. It's menacing and very Turpentine Valley! The tone is dense and oppressive and totally addictive. It’s within this push and pull, between tenderness and sheer mass, that List finds its power

Throughout this record, the narrated vocals are striking. They don’t tell the story so much as guide you through it. They hover between poem and testimony. Around them, the band builds dramatic contrasts using warm chords against sudden shadows, delicate ambient layers giving way to surges of guitars that feel like the emotional dam finally being released

The entire album has been re-recorded and subtly re-imagined, carrying a gentle shimmer of modern-day EF while preserving the haunting nostalgia that made the original so beloved. It feels like opening a time capsule only to find the memories inside somehow clearer, brighter, and more fragile than you remembered.

Plat de resistance was born out of unrest and is a brooding reflection of a world teetering on the brink, where war is no longer an abstract backdrop but an altogether harrowing reality.  With such a heavy theme, 18 Seconds tighten their grip on atmosphere and weight, weaving dense, ominous textures that echo the urgency of change and the defiance of resistance
